I would use the Piano Roll View for this. With Snap on, and snap value set to an easy value (like 1/4), create the seven notes in the row, each with the same duration. Then select all seven notes. Then, while holding down CTRL, change the duration of the entire selection to match where you want the entire septuplet to end. The individual durations of each note will change also, yet all will have the same duration. Note: You did not say what version of Cakewalk so I have assumed the latest Cakewalk by Bandlab.

See if Pressing "n" to disable snap makes a difference.

Select all. Delete special, select "Delete Hole"

What you might want to do is head over to Preferences | File | VST Settings. Then perform a reset then scan. You might also want to enable "Generate Scan Log". Then look at the resultant LOG file generated here: %APPDATA%\Cakewalk\Logs\VstScan.log Of course, you need to make sure the VST DLL for guitar rig is in a folder that Cakewalk is looking. See Preferences | File | VST Settings > VST Scan paths.

Which version (numerically) of Cakewalk are you using? The latest is 2020.4 Build 179 Are you sure that input echo is enabled on just the intended instrument track and no others? To make sure, click on the disable input echo icon on the Mix Module. Then enable the input echo icon on the specific track. Also, in preferences | MIDI | Playback and Recording, see if deselecting "Always Echo Current MIDI Track" makes a difference.

Excellent news on the static. - reminds me of the song FM (No Static At All) by Steely Dan Think of buffer size as latency. It's the number of samples your system temporarily stores before passing them on to there destination. The lower the number, the more CPU your sound subsystem utilises. If your system can handle it, then yes, 64 samples is ok. Some people have a low value with tracking. And increase it when they are mastering. It really depends on your workflow. If you have many tracks in your projects, then you might want to bump it up a bit - but only if you notice audible artefacts while tracking. It's a compromise between audible artefacts and latency (unintended delay) If you play VSTi plugins live with your Keyboard controller, you would not want it much higher then 512. As mentioned, mine is 256 which, for me, is ok for live playing of VSTi plugins.

Just to confirm, if you head to Preferences | Audio | driver settings, can you drag the "Buffer size". If this does not work then you should be able to click on "ASIO Settings" to open the software that6 controls the Audiolink III settings Note: I use a Focusrite 2i2 so I have a slightly different set up - but as far as Cakewalk is concerned, it should be similar. When you say "noise in your mic" - are you meaning like a background hiss?

First of all, you might want to stay with ASIO for recording if your audio interface comes with native ASIO drivers. Second. are you absolutely sure that no other program (even Windows itself) is accessing your audio interface while you're recording? One thing you might want to confirm is that every program that uses the card is set to the same sample rate as you're using in Cakewalk. What sample rate, bit depth and buffer size are you using? Preferences | Audio | driver settings > under "Mixing Latency". I have mine at 48Khz 24bit and 256 samples. I have a total round trip of 23.6ms I do not have any static while recording audio via my audio interface's audio inputs. This is on a Focusrite 2i2 2nd gen with the Beta drivers version 4.64.15.598 (according to device manager).

Have you downloaded the latest drivers for your audiolink III? https://miditech.de/en/produkte/manuals-drivers/ Also, what are your PC specs - CPU (Manufacturer, generation and speed), Amount of ram, hard drive type and capacity), version of Windows Also, just to confirm, are you recording Audio or MIDI (I am thinking it's audio as you mention monitoring)

Is it possible that it's because when you select all, the "Selection From" is at 1:0:0, which means that anything between 1:0:0 and the beginning of your clips is also selected (even if it's empty space)? This means the "Selection From" is as far to left as it can go. Make sure the "Selection From" is at the start of your clips - then you can drag the clips to the left.

There has to be something on your Windows installation that is causing this. I have never had these issues. On a properly configured and installed Windows PC, Bandlab Assistant should just work without any issues. This sounds like something that is only going to be resolved by delving deep into the Windows configuration. Other than reformatting and reinstalling Windows, do you have a friend experienced in PCs that can help you with this with this (even if they can remote in).

Have you downloaded the latest version (which is 5.2) from here? https://www.bandlab.com/download/assistant/windows

What happens if you import the metronome audio file into a blank project. Then drag the imported track to the time ruler to capture the tempo. Take a note (or copy the value) of the tempo that is generated. Then open your MIDI project and then enter (paste) your noted tempo into there. See if that works.

I have to say, I have not been tempted. Mind you, I think having RX7 Standard might have something to do with that. (Advanced is a bid rich for my blood ATM)

This looks like it's actually Spectralayers Pro 6 for $US149 and it comes with a free copy of Samplitude X4 Suite.

What happens iof you right click in the area between the plus and "all" and set it to the time units you wish? At the moment , it might be set to "none"

The only thing I can quickly think of, is that in Preferences | File | Advanced , "On Startup Load Default Template" is deselected. When this is selected, Cakewalk will load the template that you have set as the default template. When you go to File | New, a dialogue box should appear asking you which template you would like to open. Furthermore, at the bottom of that screen, there is "Set as default template". This is to tell Cakewalk which template to load automatically when you first start Cakewalk - assuming the above "On Startup Load Default Template" is selected. I am also assuming that in Preferences | File | Folder Locations that your "templates" location actually contians your templates (Whcih are *.CWT files) I personally do not use the Cakewalk start up screen.

First of all install Cakewalk by Bandlab... It's light years ahead of SONAR X3 (Note, you can, and should, leave SONAR X3 installed if you need to use X3 plugins that need X3 to be installed) Head to Preferences | Playback and Recording and increase the "Prepare using" value to see if that solves your issue. That being said, Cakewalk by Band lab includes many bug fixes and enhancements and is just about to release the 2020.5 update. One of those improvements with Cakewalk by Bandlab is the way it handles MIDI data and the prepare buffer. This might even solve your MIDI issues.

Have a look in Preferences | File | Folder Locations. There you will find where Cakewalk Believes your files to be located. Look down the list and you will see items, that I believe you will have to change to match your new locations.

Even if you're using MIDI, you may still be using VSTi synths that use samples. These VSTi synths may have internal effects that have tempo based delay. An example I am thinking of is Rapture Pro. If this particular synth has a patch that uses Rapture Pro's internal delay effect and that delay's time is synced to the tempo, it will produce audible clicks at the tempo changes. Other synths may have the same issue as well. It really depends of the VSTi's you are using.

That can happen when some effects has any delay or rate parameters that is synced to the tempo and the project has tempo changes therein. As far as clicks during tempo changes when effects are disabled..... this might depend on the "Stretch Method" settings in Preferences | Audio | Playback and Recording. Try different settings see if it makes any difference.

I think that's why they reduce the price of this (BB cinamatic percussion) - Sonnivox won't (or can't) work out what the issue is. For what it's worth, I sent Cakewalk support a ticket (with a crash dump) to see if they can do something (Of course, they might just say "not our problem"..... but you never know...)
